Continental echoes

[Chuck Lutz]

I was reading Buddy Holiday's book where he mentioned the album given to Mark II owners along with a note (letter) from WCF. I then read what info could be gotten from the LCOC site. Does anyone have one of these?

[Barry Wolk]

Yes, I have one. I believe there were three different covers. Mine is signed by the artist.

Great memorobilia for a Mark II owner. Did you aquire it later or get it with your car?

[Nick DeSpirito]

I've got one too. Bought it long ago. They pop up on Ebay every now and then.

Nice. Bet that is impossible to find.

Well, as luck would have it... (as they say) .. I was plowing through Craigslist (locally and countrywide) doing searches for Mark II, Contintenal, Lincoln etc under "Autos" and I got sloppy and just went with "All For Sale". What pops up is an ad for gobbs of old records from classical to swing (which I love too) but what caused the search hit was the Continental echos. Turns out the lady had the album from her father who was a Lincoln Merc dealer in Oakland CA in the 50's. I bought the whole load.
What I didn't know was the album is 12" and very brittle. I'll have to watch that.
Barry, same cover as yours but some tape keeps it's structure in tact.
